How do I fix GHSA-qjmg-77xh-7mjw?

Update loggerhead to 1.18.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-qjmg-77xh-7mjw is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-qjmg-77xh-7mjw in my PyPI dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for loggerhead, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate GHSA-qjmg-77xh-7mjw if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.

Is GHSA-qjmg-77xh-7mjw actively exploited in the wild?
